  • Key Concepts: 
    A business security profile is a feature of the Information Design Tool (IDT) in SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise (BOE). It is used to define the security settings for a particular business object, such as a report or query. The profile defines which users have access to the object, and what type of access they have. 
    
    How to use it: 
    To create a business security profile, open the IDT and select the object you want to secure. Then, click on the Security tab and select “Create New Profile”. You can then specify which users have access to the object, and what type of access they have (e.g. read-only, edit, delete). Once you’ve saved the profile, it will be applied to the object whenever it is accessed. 
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    When creating a business security profile, it’s important to remember that users can only access objects if they have been granted permission in the profile. It’s also important to remember that any changes made to the profile will take effect immediately.
